Description
Number theory is classically taught through the rote presentation of theorems and proofs supported by subsequent problem sets which employ or build upon these theorems. Inquiry based texts seek to shift this paradigm by centering instruction about student discovery of course material rather than relying upon blunt explanation alone. This project develops an inquiry based tutorial regarding the Chinese Remainder theorem in the pedagogical style of the University of Washington Tutorials in Introductory Physics.
